Did You Know?

Tampa Palms was one of the original master-planned communities that launched New Tampa in the late 1980s — much of the area's mature tree canopy was preserved as part of the original plan.

What Stands Out

A grown-in landscape that newer Tampa subdivisions can't replicate, with Tampa Palms Country Club at its center and direct access to I-75, USF, Moffitt, and Advent Tampa.

Realtor Tip

Tampa Palms has multiple sub-village HOAs on top of the master HOA — pull both governing documents and confirm gate access (some villages are gated, others are not) before showing.
